Re: ACTION on 3rd party Jars: REPORT on xml-xalan project

[Shane Curcuru <sh...@yahoo.com>]

Here's a brief report on what the xml-xalan committers have done to
address potential licensing issues brought up recently.

The xml-xalan project includes a number of .jar files in
xml-xalan/java/bin:

-- ASF licensed files with corresponding licenses from their project:
ant.jar (jakarta-ant)
ant.LICENSE.txt
ant.README.txt

BCEL.jar (new version from jakarta)
BCEL.LICENSE.txt
BCEL.README.txt

jakarta-regexp-1.2.jar
jakarta-regexp-1.2.LICENSE.txt
jakarta-regexp-1.2.README.txt

stylebook-1.0-b3_xalan-2.jar (xml-stylebook)
stylebook-1.0-b3_xalan-2.LICENSE.txt
stylebook-1.0-b3_xalan-2.README.txt

xercesImpl.jar (xml-xerces)
xercesImpl.LICENSE.txt
xercesImpl.README.txt

xalan2jdoc.jar - Is actually xalan code stored in a .jar for
convenience in our build; contact dleslie@apache.org for details.


-- Externally sourced .jars with licenses from their originating sites:
bsf.jar - http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/projects/bsf
bsf.LICENSE.txt
bsf.README.txt

java_cup.jar - http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/modern/java/CUP
java_cup.LICENSE.txt
java_cup.README.txt

JLex.jar - http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/modern/java/JLex
JLex.LICENSE.txt
JLex.README.txt

runtime.jar - http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/modern/java/CUP
runtime.LICENSE.txt
runtime.README.txt


-- Multiply-sourced sources in .jar format from xml-commons 1.0.b2
release:
xml-apis.jar (includes licenses within)
xml-apis.LICENSE.txt
xml-apis.README.txt
java/src/xml-commons-src.tar.gz (includes licenses within)


Please note that to the best of my non-lawyerly self, it sounds like
we're covered; however a number of different committers have actually
checked in each of the .jars or LICENSEs, so if the PMC needs to follow
up on the issue you'll need to do it with each actual committer.
